Wine Tasting Tours

Our tours are to wineries in either the Paso Robles, San Luis Obispo/Edna Valley, or San Ynez/Santa Maria Valley wine regions. I will arrange a very personal tour, tailored to the group’s preference of wine styles and wineries (e.g. boutique or large estates). I also am happy to do a combination wine/beer tour if your group would prefer. Appeal to your inner winemaker and ask me about special Behind-the-Scenes Tours, available seasonally.

Wine Tasting Tours include visiting three to four stops, pick-up and drop-off from your location, and personal service all along the way. I would love to assist you in booking a wonderful day!

Laura and team are always top-notch!

I have used 101 Wine Tours twice now and love that it is way more than just transportation. Their knowledge of the industry, the area and the connections they have run deep which leads to an amazing adventure when you go wine tasting with them. If you are looking for something more than a driver, 101 Wine Tours is a must!

...Laura runs her own business, and she definitively is a wine connoisseur as well as a professional at all times. She was friendly and accommodating enough, without being overbearing. My husband and I felt like we had VIP service the entire time....

Family Reunion Wine Tour

We planned a family reunion in Pismo Beach and thought a wine tasting would be a fun activity. I found 101 Wine Tours online and when Laura answered the phone, she couldn’t have been more helpful and informative. I had a lot of questions and we were 14 people. She handled everything like a true professional. Everything that day was fabulous. Stacy was our driver and gave great details about the region. Laura met us at one of the wineries. We were in good hands and their personal touch made our family outing truly memorable.

We absolutely loved 101 wine tours!

Laura was great in getting it set up. She even recognized one of our girls in our group worked for a winery and applied all these discounts for us at the wineries. So many tastings were either waived or discounted!

But the best part hands down was our driver. Her name was Stacey but we called her mom the whole time because she took such good care of us, made sure we drank water and took such great photos! If you see this - we love you, mom!

This Wine Tour Experience was the Highlight of our Trip!

I found 101 Wine Tours via TripAdvisor when looking for a car service that would take me and my wife on a tour of several wineries in Paso Robles on our honeymoon, and we are so happy we decided to go with them! Laura Jeffrey was our guide and helped us book tasting reservations at a couple of vineyards we wanted to visit, and she also took us to a boutique winery which was our favorite of the bunch. She is a certified sommelier and helped us amateur wine aficionados understand the complexities of wine and the regional differences of different grapes. She also managed to squeeze in a super cool visit to a local dairy farm and olive oil shop where we bought some gifts for family and friends and some treats for ourselves. She provided us door-to-door service from our hotel and back and the whole experience was incredible. She was extraordinarily generous and took awesome photos of us at the vineyards, and after we forgot a few purchased wine bottles in her vehicle (oops, I blame the wine!), she reached out to us and offered to hold it for us so we could swing by and pick them up before we went back home. We loved Laura’s service and this experience was the highlight of our trip. Thank you, Laura!

10 Stars for an Incredible Day!

Top notch experience from beginning to end. We were unfamiliar with the vineyards and wineries in Paso. Laura sent out a quick survey to get familiar with our preferences and planned an incredible day for us. Our rating would be 10 stars if we could!
